Episodes
S2 / Episode 9: Suck It Up, Buttercup
This week we’re getting into what it really means to be unbothered. We celebrate Chelsea’s first Hyrox Mixed Doubles, get humbled by padel, and share our thoughts on that SNL gym joke everyone’s fighting about. Then it gets real: cancel culture, internet outrage, Reddit snark pages, and why one mean comment can drown out a hundred nice ones. Plus, a quick round of Bothered or Unbothered.If you’ve
S2 / Episode 8: You Are What You Eat
Carbs aren't the enemy, and we're tired of diet culture pretending they are.

Plus a round of overrated vs. underrated nutrition trends, and the usual tangents: Gypsy Rose, the ACL mud fest, and Dallas froyo drama.Fol
S2 / Episode 7: Severely Optimized
This week we're talking over-optimization, because let's be honest, we're all a little married to our wearables. Oura Rings, Garmins, ankle-monitor Apple Watch moments, sleep scores that ruin your morning before it even starts. We get into whether all this tracking is actually helping us or just giving us something new to stress about (yes, there's a word for sleep-score anxiety, and yes, we're di

S2 / Episode 4: Winners Don't Snooze
We've got BIG news this week — and no, we're not telling you who yet. Someone in this friend group just got engaged, and the story behind the proposal is one you have to hear for yourself.

S2 / Episode 3: Insecurity Detox
This week on The Good Influence, we're playing insecurity dump candy salad — pulling out the Swedish candy and going around the table confessing every ridiculous, embarrassing thing we've ever been self-conscious about. Big feet stuffed into tiny shoes, cankles, cold sores at the worst possible moment, socks in our bras, a nose job over one comment, and one story that gets a lot more serious than
